Netflix fans left spooked and scared after watching The Devil on Trial
Netflix fans have been left scared to be alone and unable to trust anyone after watching the horror true crime documentary The Devil on Trial. The documentary, which premiered earlier this week, has already left viewers terrified and questioning their trust in others.
The Devil on Trial delves into a chilling case of alleged demonic possession
The Devil on Trial chronicles the shocking true story of Arne Cheyenne Johnson, a teenager who claimed that the devil made him commit murder. Inspired by true events from the 1980s, the documentary explores the first and only time that "demonic possession" was used as a legal defense in a U.S. murder trial. The case, which became known as "The Devil Made Me Do It" case, gained significant media attention and has remained fascinating to this day. It even served as the inspiration for the 2021 film The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.
Arne Cheyenne Johnson's chilling claim of second-hand possession
The documentary centers around Arne Cheyenne Johnson, who was just 19 years old when he claimed to be possessed by Lucifer himself after killing his friend and landlord Alan Bono at a party. Despite eyewitnesses confirming his actions, Arne insisted that he had no memory of committing the crime. He attributed his actions to being a victim of second-hand possession, which he believed occurred after his girlfriend's little brother, David Glatzel, was possessed.
An exorcism and a fateful challenge to the devil
After David Glatzel's strange and unexplained outbursts, his parents enlisted the services of self-professed demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren to perform an exorcism. During the exorcism, Arne claims that he challenged the devil to possess his own body instead of David's. Months later, after the shocking murder of Alan Bono, Arne maintained that his challenge had been answered.
A failed defense and a controversial conviction
Arne's defense of demonic possession did not hold up in court, and he was ultimately found guilty of manslaughter. However, he only served five years in prison, despite receiving a 10 to 20-year sentence. Nevertheless, Arne still maintains that the devil made him commit the crime, and he shares his side of the story for the first time in the Netflix documentary.
Terrified viewers and divided opinions
The Devil on Trial has left viewers spooked and questioning their trust in others. Some fans have expressed their fear and unease after watching the documentary, with one viewer admitting, "Made the poor choice to watch The Devil on Trial at midnight and now I'm scared." However, not all viewers are convinced by Arne's defense of demonic possession. Some skeptics have raised doubts about the veracity of his claims and questioned what happened to the devil after the murder. Ultimately, the documentary leaves it up to viewers to make their own judgments.
The Devil on Trial is now available to stream on Netflix
If you dare, you can now watch The Devil on Trial on Netflix to decide for yourself whether the devil truly made Arne Cheyenne Johnson commit murder.
